Jerome Corsi, a far-right conspiracy theorist and associate of prominent Trump ally Roger Stone, revealed Monday that he expects to be indicted by special counsel Robert Mueller “in the next few days.”

The former InfoWars editor, who’s infamous for perpetuating the baseless “birther” conspiracy about former President Barack Obama, said he has spent the past two months cooperating with the special counsel and that he walked away from a recent interrogation with the understanding that he will be “criminally charged.”

“I fully anticipate that in the next few days I will be indicted by Mueller in some form of another for giving false statements to Mueller or to the grand jury,” Corsi said during an episode of his namesake radio show.

Corsi declined to go into specifics but said Mueller had caught him in a “perjury trap.”

He claimed cooperating with Mueller —who’s investigating possible collusion between President Trump’s campaign and the Kremlin — has been “one of the most frightening experiences” of his life.

“I’m 72-years-old, I’ll die in prison,” he said.

A spokesman for the special counsel declined to comment. Corsi’s attorney also declined to comment.

Corsi has been questioned by Mueller’s investigators over his communications with Stone during the 2016 election and possible knowledge of WikiLeaks’ release of emails stolen from Hillary Clinton’s campaign manager John Podesta.

The emails were hacked by Russian operatives as part of the Kremlin’s interference and preference for President Trump in the 2016 election, according to U.S. intelligence agencies.

Stone, who has long said he also expects to be charged by Mueller, claimed Corsi could face an imminent indictment because he “refuses to do anything but tell the truth,” echoing the President’s accusation that the special counsel is orchestrating a politically-motivated “witch hunt.”

“Where is the Russian collusion? Where is the Wikileaks collaboration? Where is proof that I knew about the theft or content of John Podesta's emails or the content or the source of any of the allegedly hacked or stolen e-mails published by Wikileaks?” Stone told the Daily News.

For months, Stone has been rumored to be next on Mueller’s indictment list, with the special counsel subpoenaing and interrogating associates and friends of the longtime Trump adviser.

Dozens of Russian government operatives and Trump associates have already been indicted and pleaded guilty to federal crimes as a result of Mueller’s probe, including the President’s former campaign chairman Paul Manafort and ex-national security adviser Michael Flynn.
